BMFONTRENDERER

A simple bitmap font renderer in AS3.

TrueType support in AS3 can be very challenging to work with reliably. And for UI purposes, you don't need a fully featured text renderer. This simple bitmap font renderer exists to fill meet the simple needs of a few of my projects.

Feel free to hack on it and add new features.

Please see BMFont.as for more information on the capabilities of the renderer, and BMFontRenderer.as for example usage.
